"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there is no need for you to divide your troops into two ways, as long as you can give the minister 150,000 troops, the minister dares to guarantee that he can recover Lilac City in a short time, and can also assist the Ximu Empire in defense. This can not only reduce the expenses of the treasury, but also allow Situ Xiaofeng to continue to stay in the palace to protect your safety, wouldn't it be more than one stone?" As soon as Yu Shaoxi's words fell, Lin Yu hurriedly spoke.

"Lin Yu, I think you are too stupid for the Chinese New Year, you only rely on 150,000 troops to recapture Lilac City, and you also want to assist the Ximu Empire to defend against the grassland tribes, you are simply a fool's dream!" Situ Xiaofeng glared at Lin Yu.

He also knew that Lilac City was notoriously easy to defend and difficult to attack, and even if he was given 200,000 troops, he might not be able to successfully recapture Lilac City. Lin Yu actually dared to say this in front of His Majesty, wasn't this a bully?

"Hehe!" Lin Yuzhi laughed proudly and said, "How can I say that I am also the grandson of General Lin, and after being a famous general, how can I talk nonsense in the matter of leading troops to fight? If you don't believe me, you can hand over the military power to me, and let me teach you how to fight this battle?"

"Okay, don't talk about it! I've already decided!" Yu Shaoxi interrupted with an impatient wave, he was already regretting why he was still asking the opinions of the two of them, making them quarrel at this time.

"I will send the general order to the military headquarters, and the order will be issued immediately. You go back and prepare, review the soldiers at the city gate in three days, and set off after the pre-battle mobilization!"

"The minister obeys the order!" "Weichen obeys the holy will!" Seeing that Yu Shaoxi didn't plan to say more, the two of them could only agree, and after saluting Yu Shaoxi, they all withdrew from the imperial study.

After the two left, Yu Shaoxi let out a long sigh.

Although when he assigned Lin Yu to be the general of Fuxi just now, he said something that Lin Yu and Princess Yinyue were familiar with, but in fact, he himself knew that he was talking nonsense.

Who wants to go to the Ximu Empire? To fight at their own borders is to fight for their own country, and the supplies must be endless and sufficient. But when I went to Ximu, I was fighting for others on other people's land, and I don't know what it would be like when the time comes!

On the surface, both of them are generals, both are of the same level and have similar tasks, but in fact, it is clear which is better and which is worse.

One is to fight directly at the gate of the Great Xia Empire, and the other is to help the Ximu Empire fight the grassland tribes, which is an unfamiliar territory.

Moreover, once Lin Yu goes, he will inevitably be constrained everywhere. After all, it is someone else's empire, how can Ximu let you fight in a mess? Every time you fight, you have to report to the Ximu court, and if the court delays and discusses it, all the fighters are delayed. In this way, it will be extremely difficult to win the battle.

So to put it bluntly, Lin Yu was used as cannon fodder by himself, this guy is a little too annoying as a child of a declining family. If the battle is unsuccessful and he comes back in disgrace, then he will have a reason to belittle him and deprive him of all his rights, and by the way, he can also investigate the joint and several responsibility of the Lin family and directly knock the Lin family into the dust.

If Lin Yu was unlucky and died on the battlefield, it would be even better. His life was taken by the grassland tribe, and it had nothing to do with other people, nor did it have anything to do with him Yu Shaoxi.

Lin Yu is dead, and the grassland tribe will only continue to attack the Ximu Empire at most, and they will not be able to threaten him at all. And if the Lin family wants to take revenge, they can only go to the grassland tribe, and it has nothing to do with themselves.

As for the 100,000 army, it is naturally good and bad, and Yu Shaoxi has written it clearly in his will to the Ministry of War. The high-quality soldiers are given priority to supply Situ Xiaofeng's army, and since the high-quality ones have been supplied, then the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled, as well as those overwhelmed recruits in the Shenwei camp, are naturally Lin Yu's people.

In Yu Shaoxi's opinion, those guys who have low combat effectiveness and still have to eat military salaries every year can also be buried in the Ximu Empire with Lin Yu.

The only thing Yu Shaoxi was worried about was whether Princess Yinyue would let Queen Lu Fei appoint Lin Yu to go on the expedition because of her unfinished feelings for Lin Yu. But after thinking about it, she was already married, and if something happened to Lin Yu again, then Lin Yu would have to be small. This is something that Lin Yu will definitely not agree, so in fact, he has nothing to fear.

"Your Majesty, Situ Wuji asks to see!"

Cai Gonggong's sudden announcement woke Yu Shaoxi from his contemplation, Situ Wuji, what is he doing at this time?

"Xuan!"

I saw a figure hurriedly walking in with the wind, Situ Wuji walked to Yu Shaoxi's table, bowed deeply, and bowed three times and nine times: "See Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Situ Aiqing, why did you come here at this time?Is there something urgent to find me?" Yu Shaoxi asked lightly.

"Your Majesty, Weichen originally wanted to deal with some government affairs, but he happened to meet his grandson Situ Xiaofeng at the gate of the palace, and after talking, he learned that he was sent by His Majesty to go on an expedition. Situ Wuji said respectfully.

"Oh?" Yu Shaoxi moved his eyebrows, stared at Situ Wuji and asked, "What, is Situ Aiqing reluctant to let his grandson go to the battlefield?" If Situ Wuji really wanted to intercede for his grandson and hoped that he would not go on the expedition, then he would be too disappointed in the Situ family.

Situ Wuji hurriedly said: "No, Your Majesty! Xiaofeng can be appointed by His Majesty as the general of Zhenyuan to crusade against the grassland tribes and recover Lilac City, that is his honor, and it is also an opportunity for him to train himself." Although the old minister is also worried in his heart, he will definitely not stop it, but will be happy for him. ”

"In that case, why did Situ Aiqing come here?" Yu Shaoxi was really a little puzzled at this time.

Situ Wuji replied: "Your Majesty, in the autumn of last year, in order to prepare for the war against the grassland tribes, you once ordered the Shenwei Battalion to train a group of recruits, mainly the children of the imperial capital family. Later, during the military exercise, a group of cultivators in the early stage of the Yellow Rank also appeared, about three hundred. I don't know if you remember?"

Seeing Yu Shaoxi's expression moved, Situ Wuji continued: "The old minister takes the liberty to ask Your Majesty, how do you plan to arrange these three hundred cultivators for this campaign against the grassland tribe?"
